Abstract
An experiment was conducted during 1988-93 to study productivity, econ omic viability and energy output of different rainy-season crops in co mparison with desi cotton (Gossypium arboreum L.). Intercropping of 'C SH 9' sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench] + 'No. 148' pigeonpea [Caj anus cajan (L.) Millsp.] sole 'JL 24' groundnut (Arachis hypogoea L.) and that of 'ICTP 8203' pearl miller [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br. e mend. stuntz.] + 'No. 148' pigeonpea were found highly remunerative an d energy-producing crops, in order of sequence, and could be the alter natives for replacing 'Y-1' G. arboreum under scarcity condition of Dh ule Region.
